Get in Touch

For inquiries about applications, rules, results, gallery submissions, or general festival questions, please reach out through the sign-up below. Adding your email is the simplest way to stay informed about upcoming festival news.

Festival participants and vendors can also visit the Apply page for soloist, group, and food, arts & crafts vendor forms, or browse past Results from Heiva i Honolulu.

Festival inquiries are welcomed from participants, vendors, and community members alike, whether the question concerns soloist or group applications, costume regulations, judging criteria, or the practical details that help each performance run smoothly on stage. Organizers encourage early communication so that questions about rules, schedules, or category eligibility can be addressed well before competition days arrive. Visitors who have browsed past results or gallery submissions and wish to share feedback or follow-up materials are also invited to reach out. Staying in touch helps the festival team refine procedures year after year while honoring the traditions that bring Tahitian dance, drumming, and oratory to audiences across multiple international stages, including Honolulu, Las Vegas, and Japan.

Joining the festival mailing list is the simplest way to remain connected to announcements about upcoming events, application windows, and ticketing information. Subscribers typically receive early notice when solo categories, group divisions, and food, arts, and crafts vendor opportunities open for the next competition cycle. Updates also cover volunteer calls, sponsor spotlights, and cultural programming that complements the main stage offerings. Because festival operations move through distinct seasonal phases, timely information allows dancers, musicians, crafters, and supporters to plan their travel, rehearse their repertoires, and prepare their exhibition materials with confidence. A short sign-up keeps the community informed without overwhelming inboxes, respecting the ceremonial pace that defines the gathering.

Above all, the contact channel exists to strengthen the bonds between the festival and the extended Tahitian community that sustains it. Questions from first-time participants receive the same care as those from veteran performers and longtime family associations, because every voice contributes to the living archive of the event. Sponsors, cultural organizations, and local businesses that wish to support the gathering are likewise encouraged to introduce themselves and explore meaningful ways to contribute. Organizers view correspondence as part of the festival itself, an extension of the hospitality and gratitude expressed through song, chant, and shared meals. Reaching out is therefore both practical and cultural, opening a conversation that may eventually lead to new friendships, collaborations, and stage moments.

For those who prefer to explore independently before writing in, the festival website offers several navigation paths that complement direct contact. The Apply section gathers soloist, group, and vendor forms in one place, while the Results archive preserves the history of standout performances and award recipients across recent years. Photo galleries capture the color, movement, and community atmosphere of past events, and resource pages outline parking, venue, and program details that help visitors plan their experience. Together these sections provide a thorough overview, yet personal questions always remain welcome. Organizers believe that a festival rooted in oral tradition and shared welcome is best served by an open channel of communication.
